Pros & Cons
Pros
Built like a tank. Fully stocked tips the airline scales at 65 to 70 pounds. This case is as rugged as can be. Tough as nails.

This "suite case" is a phenomenal find. About half the price on amazon versus the manufacturers website. Incredible quality and durability. Blazing heat to sub-zero winter days and everything in between.

Highlights
Quality
A really nice buy for the quality.
I am very pleased with the results.
Picture of tan colored case is misleading - does not come with the wide handle as i expected but the narrow handle.
Pelican beats every other product of this type on the market.
Price
All in all solid product and worth the price - i doubt you can abuse it anymore than i have!
I thought i bought this without the foam and thought it was a good price.
Shipping
The case is heavy for overnight shipping.
Nice shipping case, but it is a bit heavy for airline use.
Competitiveness
This case seems like it will work great when i start traveling for shooting competitions
I bought this to take an ar15 in my checked baggage and they work great.
We would have been over 65lb total, and the case is well over 30lb on its own.
